A red flag goes up in my head any time I see "private" or "privacy" show up in a whois search... which is what happened when I did a traceroute on 67.205.68.203. Not that I needed another red flag: including the hit I just added, that IP shows up 13 times in the database. The only reason I did the traceroute was that there was no country attached to the entry I submitted.(not that it really matters, I'm just overly curious)
So my inclination is to ban the range of IPs they cover... only I'm not sure what IPs they cover.
Does anyone know if my suspicion of them has any basis in reality, and/or what IPs they cover?(I looked them up on hosts-file.net, but came up empty)

Thanks for the responses, pavemen and TeMerc. I guess unless I get more hits from privatedns addresses, I'll just leave things as they are.

Bringing this back up because one particular privatedns.com IP is popular: http://www.stopforumspam.com/ipcheck/67.205.68.203
Nothing good seems to be coming from that host: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en& … gle+Search
What is privatedns exactly? Some type of proxy service? http://www.privatedns.com/ doesn't tell you anything and Google isn't much help either: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en& … gle+Search
